Having drooled over the Charlotte Tilbury Eyes to Mesmerize and the Tom Ford Creme Color for Eyes, I knew that I had some cream eye shadow pots of my own that had a similar look and that I could play with while I moaned over the unfairness of life, inaccessible brands and how expensive they are.

So, when I went through my stash I found two of the Kiko Colour Shock Long Lasting Eyeshadows from the Boulevard rock collection of 2014.

I also found a highlighter in a similar packaging. It was the Exotic Highlighter in Taupe from the Lavish Oriental collection of 2012.

I originally thought that this collection would be online only in my country, so it was a welcome surprise to find the Philip Treacy collection displayed in my Mac Store.

I could not resist picking up one of the gorgeously embossed iluminating powders, a paint pot and a bright lipstick as if I did not already own a gazillion bright lipsticks!

The eyeshadows come in pretty clear plastic jars with golden screw tops. This makes them ideal to carry on trips as they do not weight much.

The formula of these eyeshadows is a bouncy shimmery cream that becomes a smooth powder upon application. To some, they remind them of the Diorshow Fusion Mono eyeshadows.

Clarins Ombre Mattes

  The Clarins Ombre Matte are a new product to me and I am really liking this range of wearable cream eyeshadows.

I am no stranger to cream eyeshadows, but it is true that these are something special, not only for the matte finish that is not very frequent, but for their formula as well that is less creamy and more powdery than other offerings.
